The three towns involved would have to approve; together they have a 50% vote. The Board feels Algoma has more equipment than they need and new equipment they want to purchase does not have to paid by the Town of Lincoln per the current contract and the Town attorney. There have been no fire calls in the Town of Lincoln in 2025. The County Highway Dept has put a weight limit on bad culverts, restricting Fire Dept water trucks going over empty or loaded. If Algoma formed a fire district to include other municipalities, they could apply for grants to keep taxpayer costs down. e. Luxemburg Fire & Rescue Meetings: The Town of Lincoln counts as an equal vote to other municipalities. Because Luxemburg Fire & Rescue includes other municipalities they are able to apply for grants and were able to get an award of $126,128 for radios from a State 80-20 grant. Luxemburg is looking at land for a new Fire & Rescue building. Sedron / DTE is still in need of training with Luxemburg Fire & Rescue. KFI has given permission to fill fire trucks at their water tank which will free up one pumper truck. f. Hawk Road Land Sale: C. Cochart dropped off check for $4,500 for RAC Properties, which is also paying closing costs. g.
